1994 Ford Taurus The engine light comes on

Just a light comes on when climbing a hill.
Haven't seen a symptom other that gas pressure building up in the tank. A fizzing noise comes out when opening the cap. I hve a problem in the summer when it is very hot, here in Northern California. Symptom is like an old car with vapor lock.
I know I can't vapor lock don't have a carborator.
We think its an Ignation modual malfunctioning. Can't fine out where they hid it on this beast. Said it could be up by the window washer motor.
I know about the Oxygen sensors but don't know how to test it. Is there a manufacturing recall on these parts.
